Blued hands, no date or crown guard as a start.

A Watchprosite Ulysse Nardin?

My idea: Let's start from this Torpilleur: Let's take a 40 mm case. No need to go bigger, in my opinion. Steel or titanium, up to you... Steel would be less expensive. Then, let's go for a black enamel dial. Smooth step bezel. Let's change the see through...
I'd be interested

Maybe get rid of PR in front, put on back or have logo at 12 instead. TI
Yes, it is a UN design element...

...but manufacturers seem to have different ways to show 'Up' and 'Down.' I would prefer 'Up' to show the number of hours left and 'Down' to be zero hours when the movement stops. Maybe that's just me...
Beautiful!

If I may ask, what's the significance of the red "24"? Perhaps, the red accent can be placed at a more symmetrical position (near 12 o' clock)?

It needs a date.
By: M4 : October 21st, 2022-23:24
I kid, I kid. I'm not a fan of blued hands. I'd prefer black hands. Otherwise, it's a great concept. M4
Nice piece
By: Cookies : October 21st, 2022-23:52
They should make it in corinthian bronze or some nautical metal. Some special wood dial will be nice too. This watch has some nautical DNA which they have not fully expressed. Somehow, the Panerai Eileen Radiomir came to my mind when I thought about poten...
Or another alternative

Lumed enamel, like those used in Angular Momentum watches. Nothing else needs to be changed. Imagine a whole dial which glows, in a delicate enamel. Ooooo
Not familiar with torpilleur dimensions..
By: Echi : October 22nd, 2022-03:42
So they came in 40mm? Website models indicate a 42mm size. But at 40, and with all those features you mentioned, it would be interesting simply because it would be a UN x WPS piece. Midnight blue enamel dial could also be an option but would not mind blac...

Would be a lovely iteration !
By: borisundercover : October 22nd, 2022-04:46
Black enamel + smooth bezel would give this model a whole new charm and identity
Sounds great

Iโm in. ๐ 40mm, black enamel ๐
a purist UN
By: keks : October 22nd, 2022-08:09
would love to see a Purist UN... but my personal preference would be the San Marco in 40mm... but in steel or titanium ... with a enamel dial in a nice color (black, white, green). Hour index Breguet would be lovely or stick index perhaps! Hands dauphine....
yes!
By: keks : October 22nd, 2022-08:44
but in steel or titanium with an enamel dial!
Why not!
By: amanico : October 22nd, 2022-08:46
let us call them up!
By: keks : October 22nd, 2022-08:56
I think they would love to receive this inquiry!
This one could be great too!
By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : October 22nd, 2022-11:31
As much as I like them torpilleur project idea I wonder indeed if this would be more special as a โpuristโ timepieceโฆlove it! It is also a less common UN reference which I like
;) ;) ;)
By: amanico : October 22nd, 2022-16:02
I like everything about this idea!
By: jlux : October 22nd, 2022-09:00
With a black enamel dial I would also rather see the hands in silver or white (for better legibility). And ,why not, the power reserve indicator hand in ...red ! I would be in for sure !! Best, Gerard
for me only in white enamel
By: penfriend : October 22nd, 2022-10:00
this watch doesn't work with a black dial imo - it is not a bad boy style
Roman for sure
By: penfriend : October 22nd, 2022-11:28
or we could also ask Lange directly via Jerome ;-))))
Ok.

A quick idea
By: GeorgeP : October 22nd, 2022-10:56
I don't post too much on here but thought this sounded like a great idea, so I've done a quick photoshop with some of the ideas mentioned above: -Black enamel dial with white roman numerals -Stepped bezel -Red power reserve and small seconds hands -White ...
Great sketch!

Love this!

Youโre welcome !
By: borisundercover : October 22nd, 2022-11:30
As a big UN enthusiast Iโm really both surprised and happy to see the brand receive so much attention and love here, usually (sadly) they are kept out of main watch conversations shadowed by titans like Patek or Vacheron. P.S. : the San Marco line is trul...
Tantalum sounds v. Interesting.
By: russell996 : October 23rd, 2022-09:42
White dial looks amazing but does remind me of their previous pieces and even some previous WatchPro special editions. Still love the idea of black enamel - how about silver printing as they did on the black dial Berlin? Black polished hands would be hard...
Good! ;)
By: amanico : October 23rd, 2022-10:50
I am in favor of steel and white
By: penfriend : October 23rd, 2022-19:09
second would be tantalum and black -but i don't really like the white hands tbh, looks cheap
Noted, N.
By: amanico : October 23rd, 2022-19:51
Amazing work ๐
By: russell996 : October 23rd, 2022-14:35
Black dial tantalum looks killer ๐
:))))
By: amanico : October 29th, 2022-06:07
Very bold.
By: russell996 : October 23rd, 2022-16:32
Or maybe silver Roman numerals like they used on the black dial Berlins
I think it's missing one element
By: cazalea : October 24th, 2022-14:11
Could we have an optional crystal with X laser etched and filled, for those who love the UN fascination with it? ๐ OK, just kidding. ...
Ouch!

good one Nico...I think enamel dial will be good addition.
By: mahesh : November 12th, 2022-06:27
I feel Tantalum will make it ridiculously expensive so Steel is better I think - keeps it in good price range. only place I'm split on my head...Roman numerals or Arabic ?! It is an underrated gem, well chosen. Best, mahesh.,
Sounds really great, already..
By: hs111 : December 6th, 2022-15:55
although Iโm still a bit torn between black or white enamel dial/ more inclined to Roman nmbrs ( but not a breaking point). - Guess the tantalum story will be decided by the extra price. - In the end , let me just reiterate - I am IN !! ๐๐
